Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells
Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

Flux trapping in hydrides not yet confirmed [PDF]
In Ref. [1], Minkov et al reported the time dependence of magnetic moment of hydride materials under high pressure in a diamond anvil cell. Here we point out that the straight lines interpolated with the measurement results give the misleading impression that thermal flux creep in superconductors decays linearly with time. To dispel this misconception,

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

BioinspiredLLM: Conversational Large Language Model for the Mechanics of Biological and Bio-inspired Materials [PDF]
The study of biological materials and bio-inspired materials science is well established; however, surprisingly little knowledge has been systematically translated to engineering solutions. To accelerate discovery and guide insights, an open-source autoregressive transformer large language model (LLM), BioinspiredLLM, is reported.
